quences-when all these things are done,
Western Texas will put off clothes OF
mourning, and Texas will be herself
again.
The past policy of the state has
been to give lands to any and
everybody; to every railroad king, to
penniless ADVENTURES and lavishly
in princely manner, to give away all the
lands where rains were certain, and the
greater part Of the remainder, and to
make that which the grabber left bring
allthat the whole would have brought.
This policy is like unto rich lord, who
made great feast and invited all the
great of his own and every other foreign
country, and had hidden his servants to
STAY all the stabbed oxen and fatted calves,
which he was want to sell to his many
tenants and dependents. After numer-
Gus great guests from all lands came,
they were served with all the choice
meats, and afterwards his many favorite
eunuchs and dogs were also fed,
and there was then left great and meat
less pile of bones, whereupon he bid his
tenants and dependents come and buy
meat. Being sorely in need they came in
great numbers, for he was the richest
lord in the whole land; and, now that
they had come, he ordered that these
bones be sold at the same price the beasts
would have brought before their bones
were picked;s wherenpOr the multitude
made complaint that the meat was all
gone. Then the lord grew Wroth, and
addressing the multitude, said: Are We
not my dependents and tenants? Dare We
dispute your masters will? Be ye glad to
get bones! Know ye not that | am the
greatest lord in the land and must
needs keep up the dignity of my house
and feed my eunuchs and dogs? And
would youth grudging meanness, have my
Golfers go untitled, when offer you these
bonesf for sum only that my beasts would
have brought! Go slaves, before your
master refuseth you the bones!
Let the state get back to true princi-
pies. Don't lock the West in a bastile
and lose the key; don't dem,nd for the
remnant what all would have been worth;
don't add to the desert winds frigid
laws. Turn the frontiersman loose
in an even race and he will be him
self again, and the frontier line will not
retreat, but advance, and in the language
of Gov. Roberts, evil raise up a hardy
population taat will rule this country"
and will cover the desert with green car
pet and glory of happy homesteads. In
my further letters will discuss the pres
ent land laws-suggest chaHges-con-
slider the price-suggest methods to in
crease rain and to destroy the prairie
dogs -pest-how to prevent further con-
centrating of the lands into great bodies
and how to divide and sub-diyide those
already enmassed, etc.

q carriage containing four young men

Young men and the blood-red mosquito

A CONTRACTOR for one of the govern

imported English titles, the American
tile manufacturers have set up a howl
against this seeming turning against

contractor applied 10 the American

a combination had been formed to put
cp h price. He then examined the
specifications OF his contract an dis
co:er NJ that be was not obliged to use
American ties, sent TO England for the
articles, obtaining them for thirty-five
cents each, fully thirty per cent. lower
than the price of the American tiles OF
the same quality.

SMALL GOVERNMENT SALARIES.

We bear a good deal about oyer-paid
! Federal officials, high salaries in tie
government service. and so on. There
il something in this talk, but very little
sni all there is in it arises from The fact
hat so many cheap and mediocre men
az put TO the government Offices. II
men equal to The positions to be filed
~ always given the offices, nothing
would ever be said about over-paio
servants and high salaries. When q
fifteen hundred dollar lawyer is given a
twa thousand dollar judgeship, every
DOdy thinks the saa y Is too high,
when as a matter Of fact it is he man
who is too cueap. As a rule American
ffirlals are not nearly so veil paid as
those OF similar grade in any other
If the first class nations. Great Britain
paws three and four times as much a.
tn United States. France fully twice as
much, Germany nearly as much again,
aud even poverty -stricken Turkey pays
salaries fully double those of America
If he-fight kind OF men were put into
our offices everybody would blush for
the stinginess of the nation Ia paying
nothing but starvation wages to its
servants. There is some honor in the
offices, and this fact leads competent
and worthy men into the positions.
otherwise four-6fths of the offices in
the gift of the government would be
filled by cheap scrubs, men who were
not worth the miserable salaries paid.
The stinginess is just now illustrated
in the announcement that Manning;
Secretary OF the Treasury, and Jordan,
Treasurer, have placed their resigna
tons in the hands of the President, and
will soon retire and engage In pri-
vate banking enterprise. There is no
more important Office in the nation
tnan that of Secretary of the Treasury,
and the Treasurer is of little less lmpor-
lance; both places are occupied by eff
Gent gentlemen, but they cannot afford
to remain; government pays one
$1,000 a year, and the other $1,000,
while a private enterprise gives Man
ming S25 900, or over three times what
he nation can afford to pay him, and
ives Jordan $4,000, or nearly twice
what the government pays him. Here
n Utah the manager of mine receives
from IS, 900 to $4,000 year, or half
more than the Cabinet Minister who
manages the finances of the nation.
Considering the class of men who get
nto the Federal offices, perhaps the
salaries are as large as they should be,
out If better salaries were paid. ADLER
and more competent officials would be
the result, and better service would fol-
low. The government should at least
be able to employ the best talent.

SOME QUEER applications for pensions
occasionally reach the pension office
For instance. the other day a woman
in Little Rock, Ark, applied for a pen.
sion on the ground of nervous debility.
In her application she explains that
during the war wounded Federal
soldier was brought into her mothers
house where his leg was amputated.
The spectacle threw the girl into con-
WILSON'S, from which she has never re-
covered. She asks government to ALLOW
her $50 month as compensation for
her suffering. Her claim is not more
ridiculous than some which have been
allowed, and possesses quite as much
merit as claims upon which thousands
of dollars are annually paid out.

The New YORK strikers are not com
ing to terms and returning to work, but
they ale beginning to wish they were.
Their places are being fast filed by
green hands who are learning the bust
ness, and one of these days the strikers
will wonder where they can find en-
ploYment. Some of the railway and
steamship companies warned their en-
ployees that if they went out on strike
they could never return to their places.
1t takes workingmen long time to
learn that it is folly to throw up one
job until another and better one has
been secured; but they are learning it
by degrees.
